Meh. I think it was waaaaayyyy over hyped. The movie was average and not too interesting. I think it would of played out better if it included what preluded to the crucifixion, like all of the miracles Jesus made and all the support he gained leading up to the crucifixion. *spoilers i guess, even though pretty much everyone knows the story* I dunno, it just seemed that 15 min. of showing him being whipped and then another 40 min of him carrying the cross took up wayyy to much screen time. They did occasionally show flashbacks of Jesus at home and Jesus talking to the apostles at the last supper, but nothing realing showing his power as the messiah i.e. healing, curing the blind, walking on water, etc.
